The September/October 2025 curriculum will involve designing a movie poster. Imagine a fictional movie based on a theme you would like to see or a motif you like, and create a poster design to promote that movie. To convey the content of the film we have in mind, we aim to complete a poster by using a carefully selected theme color as the base, and by considering a composition that conveys the relationships between the characters and the setting at a glance. You will also decide on the movie title, which is essential for a poster, and even design the text itself to create a poster that objectively makes people want to see the movie. Through this curriculum, you will acquire comprehensive expressive skills that go beyond illustration. For class details, please click here.

For this assignment, you’ll create a poster that fulfills that role. This allows you to experience creating with a different sense of purpose than when drawing freely. The ability to consider necessary
requirements and produce a result that meets them is an important skill for living in society. You’ll also learn the design techniques necessary for poster production. The curriculum also explains important points to keep in mind when creating a poster, such as the composition of the illustrations used, designing a logo that suits the film, and how to combine a logo and illustration. Free online trial lessons are held weekly, allowing you to experience the Atam Academy curriculum.

here ​ About the Atam Academy Curriculum Up until now, Atam Academy has designed its classes with the concept of not only providing the fun of illustration classes, but also equipping students with the skills they need to thrive in society. 《Examples of lessons conducted so far》 Decide on a theme and imagine the conversation! Create LINE stickers Communicate the world you feel! Illustrate your favorite story Create your ideal island! Try your hand at concept art Observe your surroundings! Express spring, summer, fall, and winter through illustrations Look at yourself objectively! Create your own original avatar At Atum Academy, we believe that the secret to “living in society” lies in interactions with others, and we design lessons that encourage communication between students from the planning stage onward. For example, in a lesson on illustrating spring, summer, fall, and winter, students introduce each other to the seasons of spring, summer, fall, and winter in their respective regions. Because Atum Academy students come from all over the world, they sometimes notice differences between winters in Tokyo and Australia during their conversations. Atam Academy believes that it is important for children to have these experiences, which allow them to come into contact with different values ​​and ways of thinking through interactions with society and others, and thus broaden their world.

This is the first step in becoming an artist. As you create your illustrations for publication, you can think about how to make your work more appealing while you draw. In July 2024, the “Comic Atam” exhibition, themed around manga, was held at Shibuya Hikarie.
